Fraser Myers on the race industry

Many of the ideas about race being pushed by BLM – particularly the ubiquity of structural racism – are now part and parcel of corporate culture and the white-collar workplace.  Race experts are invited to give workshops and training on diversity and inclusion.  Employees are tested for their unconscious bias. An entire race industry worth billions has mushroomed.  The most famous and sought-after race entrepreneurs, like Robin DiAngelo and Ibram X Kendi, can earn vast sums of money in the corporate sector – sometimes tens of thousands of dollars per hour.  Those BLM protesters setting fire to police stations were not radical revolutionaries — they were more like the militant wing of the human-resources department.
